Wallpapers in bathrooms? With care and good ventilation any wallpaper can be used in the bathroom. You just need to make sure it doesn’t come into contact with water on a regular basis. So not directly around the bath, shower or sink – otherwise anything goes.

Whilst tile effects remain popular we hope we can show you here some of the more recent trends for bathrooms.

The bedroom should be your comfort zone, so whether it is modern, traditional, country, romantic or wild! Make your room your own, a place you can retreat at the end of a busy day and relax - ban the technology and lie back and relax.

Don't neglect that first impression - it's important to keep your entrance and hallway tidy, as it is the first thing any visitor will see. Wallpaper can make maximum impression for minimum effort and we have lots to choose from. If you're not sure try a pattern with a vertical design, to give the illusion of more space and draw the eye up, away from the clutter of shoes and boots. Or pick a warm colour to welcome you home or just have fun!

Kitchens are the hub of the home and often the centre of family life, as we create open-plan cooking and dining areas. These new rooms are perfect for adding feature walls - something fun and quirky which the whole family will enjoy. And while a new kitchen is expensive, a featurewall can be an inexpensive refresh to any home.

and all things bling! Modern printing techniques mean that anything is possible with wallpaper now, when it comes to glitter. So if you like a subtle lustre effect, to catch the light or if you want the full flamboyant sparkle, there is something for you.

Add a touch of professionalism to either your home, office or studio with this selection of sleek and contemporary wallpapers brought to you by Wallpaperdirect. Perfect for livening up any tired workspace to help you achieve the exact look and feel to get your energy and creativity flowing!

Looking to create your own stately home style - then we have lots of stunning damasks and regal patterns for you to browse. Think rich colours with perhaps metallic and lustre details or classic motifs and geometrics. While lighter colours can provide a subtle backdrop and reflect light to fill a large room.

Whether you are lucky enough to live in a beautiful country cottage or simply dream of those roses round the door, wallpaperdirect design ideas can help. The style ranges from the classic to the contemporary, so something for every home.

Trends for this Autumn / Winter: Lots to choose from with Industrial Textures, Exotic Foliage and a fling with Flamingos creating new trends for this season. Or embracing our love affair with last century design, with a renaissance in all things 70s style, the 70s Boho trend brings together a mix and match of patterns and colours from that era.

Be inspired by the latest trends in wallpapers for the Spring / Summer season: Fresh Spring Greens and Modern Pantones inspired while Geometrics go bolder and include wood textures, Florals go wild for roses, and Aqua remains the new summer shade for blue and pastel hues return with Sun-Bleached shades. And not forgetting that design classic Monochrome – usually in the simplest black and white combination.
